On Jon’s girlfriend Hailey Glassman (the 22-year-old daughter of Kate’s tummy tuck surgeon): “I was shocked, but those things… to be very honest, that’s his life and they don’t affect me directly at this point. It’s hurtful when his decisions directly affect our children. That’s the hardest part for me.”

On why she still wears her wedding ring: “It’s been there for 10 years and I don’t want to upset [the kids]. They’ve seen it their whole lives and know that it’s my ‘married to Daddy’ ring. When the time is right, I will take it off. I’ve done a trial day here and there.”

On Jon being a very different person now: “Our hopes and dreams had become different. Clearly, his goals are not my goals, so we just needed to work that out. I think it’s very clear that we are two different people at this point, with two different sets of goals.”
